Phoenix had a massive heat wave last week where temperatures soared above 110 degrees. While we usually use our pool to cool off, one dip in felt like lukewarm bathwater.

We want to have fun with our kids! However, when summer hits, so do the expenses. Kids activities are pricy, but entertainment doesn’t need to be expensive. During these Dollar Store Days of Summer, I’m sharing ten activities that use only supplies found at the Dollar Store. They are quick. They are easy. And most require little adult guidance and help. Just sit back and watch your kids play. Or.. jump in and join the fun!
